Although Li Hu said that those evil things would arrive at midnight, he told me directly that they would not give us such a long time to prepare.
Sure enough, just as the sky was getting slightly dark, a howling sound that could tear through the night came from the distant mountains, immediately making Niu Jianguo and the others look at each other.
"His grandma is a bear, is this called a spring?" Niu Jianguo muttered.
Zhuge Yushu raised his head and looked into the depths of the mountain forest with his deep eyes, a trace of confusion in his eyes. He had opened the Tianji Umbrella before, but no one knew what he saw in the Tianji Umbrella.
Zhuge Yushu's face is still a little ugly, slightly pale, but his eyes are still determined. He is obviously a handsome boy. It's a pity that today he is destined not to be a handsome man like Anji.
A fierce battle is imminent, no one knows who will live and who will die!
It was getting dark, and the lights in the city behind me were dim. Earlier, I had asked Qin Shisan to persuade those who stayed in the city to leave, but there were still very few people who chose to stick to it. After all, this was their
It is difficult for them to give up the home they have lived in for many years, even in the face of death...
I wanted Li En to leave too, but she didn't listen to me.
At my insistence, Li En stood on the city gate. She told me that this was her last line and stubbornness. If we couldn't resist the dead things, she would jump off the city wall and watch me die.
I will go to hell together...
I have no reason to refuse Li En anymore. Just like when she decided to fight upside down in the small mountain village, she was still persistent and I was still speechless to refute.
After it got dark for a while, a noisy sound of birds and animals suddenly came from deep in the forest. Under the dim moonlight, I saw many flocks of birds flying out of the forest. They hovered in the sky for a short time and then dispersed in all directions.
In addition to birds, the wild beasts in the mountains and forests also rushed out of the woods where they had been hiding for a long time in a panic. Many of them even ran straight to our camp.

Many Doumen brothers looked straight at it, but the expressions of the older ones changed slightly. Only those who have experienced it know that ordinary birds and beasts will not flee in such a panic unless they encounter great danger.
.
Right before our eyes, this danger is imminent!
The birds and beasts in the mountains and forests have already fled, but outside the city, Doumen has more and more brothers.
Sun Xiaoke, Niu Jianguo, Zhuge Yushu and others are all here.
I didn't expect that because of one of my actions, a fierce battle would be brought forward.
Outside Jingcheng, 1,500 Doumen brothers gathered together. In front of them was the depths of the mountain forest that exuded a gloomy atmosphere.
Although Niu Jianguo has asked his cousins to dig several traps and trenches around the perimeter, no one dares to be careless at this moment...
A fierce battle is imminent, and inexplicable emotions are spreading.
Qin Shisan took the lead in sneaking in from the flank of the mountain forest with his escort brothers. Although it was already dark, we did not want to give up our grasp of the enemy's situation just like this...
"Shopkeeper, brothers are ready."
Niu Jianguo came over with a lot of mud still on his body. He had taken his cousins to dig traps all day today. It was rare that he did everything personally.
"Let the brothers rest where they are." I said.
Niu Jianguo nodded, then patted the dirt on his chest, suddenly grinned at me and asked: "Shopkeeper, do you think we can carry it tonight?"
I was startled, and Niu Jianguo's dark face became a bit more charcoal under the light of a torch not far away.
"If you can't carry it, you have to carry it." I said calmly.
Behind us is Mirror City. Behind Mirror City is an undefended area. Once we fail to stop the army of dead creatures here, the cities to the south of Mirror City will disappear in front of the army of dead creatures.
…
One thousand five hundred Doumen brothers are all ready to go!
I looked back and saw that there were crowds of people on the top of Mirror City.
Almost all the people who are still stuck in the city have gone to the top of the city. They are watching us and waiting for hope...
In the gloomy mountain forest, it was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water. Sun Xiaoke improvised a trebuchet-like thing and put a grass ball soaked in gasoline on it. He told me that as long as there was a slight movement later, he would
People would light fireballs and throw them into the mountains and forests. Dead things are afraid of fire. Sun Xiaoke was speechless after talking about this. He couldn't wait to see the scene of dead things being destroyed by fireballs.
But little does this kid know that he only has one trebuchet, and the dead things we are about to face are endless...
When there was still more than an hour before midnight, Qin Shisan came back.
He took more than twenty highly skilled escort brothers and sneaked into the mountains and forests, but when he came back, only two people were left with him.
Qin Shisan's eyes bulged, and his face was extremely ugly. He staggered to me, spat out a mouthful of blood, and said: "Shopkeeper, they are here..."
As soon as Qin Shisan finished speaking, a burst of howling ghosts and wolves suddenly erupted in the forest far behind him.
The sound was like a flood, instantly frightening the people on the city top.
I asked someone to take Qin Shisan down to see his injury. At the same time, Sun Xiaoke's voice sounded.
"Get the trebuchet ready for me!"
"Ignite! Throw!!"
With everyone's eyes focused on it, the fireball thrown by the trebuchet flashed a ray of light in the air, and then hit the mountain forest accurately.
In the blink of an eye, a flame burst out of the forest. The fireball ignited the dead trees. The fire instantly illuminated the darkness of the forest.
And in just a moment, I saw the darkness in the mountain forest fade away, revealing twisted/ferocious faces.
They were lifeless, their limbs were missing, and even black blood stains remained... Under the firelight, they twisted their bodies, and their eyes burst out with cold light.
"Here they come."
Niu Jianguo spit in his hand, swung his big ax and put it on his shoulder; behind him, three hundred cousins also tightened their grip on the weapons in their hands.
According to the previous plan, Niu Jianguo's main attack was from the front.
"His grandma's money is probably ten or twenty thousand, right?" Niu Jianguo cursed.
Under the firelight, dead creatures rushed out of the forest in a continuous stream, and they suddenly gathered like a tide; and when they rushed to the periphery of our temporary position, the traps dug during the day came into play.
A deep pit as wide as two people lay in front of the army of dead creatures. The bottom of the pit was covered with various barbs and kerosene. Sun Xiaoke's fireball was thrown into the pit appropriately, and it was instantly ignited.
A sea of fire.
The first wave of dead creatures quickly fell into the pit and the sea of fire. They did not have any thinking ability and quickly fell into the trap blindly. Many dead creatures were burned on the spot, and more were knocked down.
The hook holds us back and we can't move forward. All we can do is bare our teeth and claws at us.
"Brothers, it's our turn!"
Niu Jianguo took the lead and rushed forward. They wanted to take advantage of the fire to harvest as many dead things as possible...
There are traps and a sea of fire on the front, but on the side, another wave of dead things has come around.
People shouted in panic from the top of the city. Outside the city gate, Sun Xiaoke wiped the stone hammer in his hand and waved his hand, and he led his cousins to greet them.
Within a moment, most of the 15,000 Doumen brothers had joined the battle group.
I looked up and saw that in the distant mountains and forests, the army of dead creatures was still pouring out...
A calm smile appeared at the corner of my mouth, and I glanced at the beautiful figure on the top of the city behind me, and immediately let out a breath of turbidity.
"Brothers of Doumen, we will live and die together in this battle!"

I am sorry to the editor and all readers!
